Vertical Bladder Tank (Foam Storage Tank) is manufactured using high-strength carbon steel material and pressure-resistant elastomer membrane to safely store foam concentrate in fire suppression systems and deliver it to the main water line at precise ratios in the event of a fire. Operating on the principle of hydrostatic pressure, the system offers uninterrupted extinguishing performance without the need for an external foam pump or power source.
Vertical Bladder Tank System Advantages
Preferred in fire safety systems, the Vertical Bladder Tank stands out with its practical solutions, especially in tight spaces, and its long-lasting structure.
- Thanks to its vertical cylindrical body architecture, it saves floor space, particularly in pump rooms with narrow and limited areas.
- The special elastomer membrane (bladder) inside completely prevents water and foam concentrate from mixing, allowing the foam to be stored for a long time without degrading.
- It provides fast and trouble-free installation on-site with pre-piped or standard valve configuration options.
- It is safely preferred in aircraft hangars, petrochemical plants, fuel storage areas, and marine applications where flammable and combustible liquids are present.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How does the Vertical Bladder Tank function in a fire suppression system?
The Vertical Bladder Tank preserves the foam concentrate without contacting water thanks to the flexible membrane inside; in the event of a fire, it transfers the foam to the Proportioner equipment via line pressure, ensuring the water-foam mixture is obtained at a precise ratio.
What certificates and documents does the Vertical Bladder Tank have?
Our products have CE certification in compliance with the 2014/68/EU Pressure Equipment Directive, ISO 9001:2015 Quality Management Certificate, ISO 14001 and ISO 45011 standard compliance certifications, as well as Industrial Registry and Certificate of Domestic Goods documents.
Do Vertical Bladder Tank models require external energy or a pump?
No, Vertical Bladder Tank systems operate at full performance directly with the existing water pressure in the fire suppression line, without needing any external electrical energy or additional foam pump.
